  • What Are Your Intentions?

    Raise your hand if you’re ready to kiss 2020 goodbye—I know I sure am! I mean seriously, this year was an absolute dumpster fire and I, for one, am welcoming 2021 with open arms. Today James and I are back on the podcast to do some annual intention setting for the upcoming year, so join us and together, we'll manifest all of the good things to come! Or at the very least we can all cross our fingers and hope for the fucking best.

  • Sneaking Out and Making Art

    You know the saying, “opposites attract?” Well, those words hold true for me and my next guest, Sam Christensen, because he’s about as optimistic as they come, but like, in a good way, I promise! On today’s episode we chat about a few of Sam’s most notable life experiences, from sneaking out of the house in high school to landing a super cool print-making internship in college, and it's safe to say that we could all afford to take a page out Sam's book. Check it out!

    Do you work in the service industry? Do you love it, but like, also absolutely hate it at the same damn time? We feel your pain. Today I have my wonderful friend Adam Kammer on the podcast for a passionate rant about life in the service industry, because as we know, sometimes it's hell and other times you close up early and drinks are on the house!

  • I Left My Heart at Akira Toki Middle School

    Did you learn more about womanhood from the American Girl book ‘The Care and Keeping of You’ than from your own health class? Did you have your heart broken in middle school? Well then this episode is for you! Today one of my very best friends, Zoe Sprout, joins me on the podcast to chat about everything we used to complain about at the age of 12 compared to now at the ripe old age of 24, and honestly, ain’t shit changed.
